Statement of Purpose

Herefordshire Carers Support exists to ensure that carers are universally recognised as fundamental to the communities in which they live and to ensure that there is a balance between their caring responsibilities and their lives outside their caring role.

We aim to do this by:

• Actively involving carers to tell us what services they wish to receive
• Sharing our knowledge and skills to inform others about best practice
• Promoting the participation of carers in their communities by recognising and overcoming the barriers that they face
• Participating in the development of policies that enhance equality and thereby challenging discrimination
• Efficiently delivering services that are of a high quality and work across professional and administrative boundaries
